B):P Yep! Keep the B-----s Honest!Funny thing, Our Constitution came into effect after many years of British Rule, first written into it was the need for ALL to Vote!!In hindsight, maybe OUR ForeFathers got that one Right? :censored: :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B)I'll forget the rubbish about the beer. I still don't think that compulsory voting solves anything. It's very easy to spoil a ballot paper. We even get a percentage at each election who take to trouble to go voluntarily to the polling booth, and then deliberately spoil the ballot paper.
